Is equity for women and girls important to you?   Are you passionate about equal rights and equal pay for women and eliminating gender discrimination in the workplace? Do you want to continue learning and discussing issues and ideas?  Do you want to broaden your friendships and have fun doing it? Then AAUW-NC is the group for you.

New member orientation teas are held every year, where new members learn of the many opportunities to connect with other members and how they might become more involved in a variety of ways. The 2025 orientation was held November:

 

The Nevada County Branch is a vital organization that welcomes new women every year and continues to grow and change with the times.

Belonging to AAUW-NC offers members an opportunity to learn about and participate in the goals of equity that are pursued locally and at the national and state levels. The Branch also has its own projects such as Local Scholarships, Tech Trek, and several community service projects. We hold  monthly programs,  some with keynote speakers, some strictly social, and others for fund-raising. We also offer a variety of interest groups that meet regularly to enjoy mutual interests:  hiking, books, world cuisine and more.

Application forms are available on this website and at every general meeting during the AAUW year, third Saturdays, 9:30 am, September through May  (we take a break during the summer). General meetings are open to the public and are often the first step for many to join after viewing a program and meeting the many women who are members.
